A very cognitively troubled Donald Trump was wandering on top of the White House roof this morning, making weird hand gestures and yelling to the press. Anything I do is financed by me. More ways to spend my money. I'm paying for everything. Here's what happened. Let me just show you the clip. On the roof of the White House, he's taking questions.

Or he was just a few moments ago. let's listen in please you're looking good Peter we're going to follow up here something beautiful what is that mean

what are you more ways to spend my money can you give my another friend I will that we'll show you it's just another way to spend my money for the country anything I do is

finance by me so you're not It's contributed. Just like my salary is contributed, but nobody ever mentioned it. Yeah, a deeply disturbing moment, indeed. He then called up CNBC and started ranting and raving like a lunatic. I'll show you that in a moment, but here's another angle right here of him on top of the roof. Here, play this clip.

I used to spend my money. Can you give us another hint? I will not we'll show you. It's just another way to spend my money for the country. As our editor-in-chief Ron Filipkowski writes, there is a senile old man in orange makeup, wandering around on the roof on the White House, making weird hand gestures,

and yelling out, I finance everything, I pay for everything. It's me who pays for everything. So then he calls CNBC. There's a host on CNBC, John Joe Cernan, who's like an ultra-maga guy. And all these CNBC hosts like treat Donald Trump like he's a little baby and they like baby him. It's such a strange thing for a financial show to be doing this.

But that's the corrosive nature of corporate news right now. But Donald Trump then talks about undocumented farm workers. And he basically says that migrants, They're built for farm work. They have good backs. And if their backs hurt, then they die. And then he seems to suggest that black people are not good farm workers as much as he tries to make them become good farm workers.

That's what he's saying here. But this is what he's saying on a financial show this morning after walking on the roof. Here play this clip. Back to their country with a pass back in legally. And we're doing things that are very difficult to do. do and very complex, but it works really well. We're sending them back, and then they're schooling, they're learning, they're coming in, they're coming in legally. We have a lot of that going on, but we're taking care of our farmers. We can't let our farmers not have anybody, you know,

these are very, these people, you can't replace them very easily. You know, people that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They're just not doing that work. And they've tried, we've tried, everybody tried uh they don't do it these people do it naturally naturally i said what happens if they get it to a farmer the other day what happens if they get a bad back he said they don't get a bad back sir because if they get a bad back they die i said that's interesting isn't it you know these are very in many ways they're very very special people okay go ahead no okay so then he talks about putting tariffs on pharmaceuticals up to 250 percent. And again, he's just saying numbers, 150 percent, 250 percent. We're going to make all the pharmaceuticals here. So you're just going to

make everybody's prescription drug prices cost a lot more money. Okay, anyway, play this clip. Chips and semiconductors, but on pharmaceuticals, we'll be putting a initially small tariff on pharmaceuticals, but in one year, one and a half years, maximum. it's going to go to 150 percent and then it's going to go to 250 percent because we want pharmaceuticals made in our country and that's not the chipsack like Biden did because you didn't know what he was doing where they gave billions of dollars to companies that had more money than they knew what to do with president Trump can I ask you about then Donald Trump rants and raves on the CNBC show that he has the highest poll numbers ever even though his poll numbers right now are

in the mid-30s. They're actually the worst ever. He says those polls are rigged. Those polls are fake. In fact, his polling is in the 70s, he says, with minimal pushback from Joe Kernan and the CNBC folks here, play this clip. Bill, talk about all the stuff that... Hey, Becky, I'd like to run. I have the best poll numbers I've ever had. You know why? Because people love the tariffs. And they love the And they love that countries, and they love that foreign countries aren't ripping us off. Overall poll numbers. No, no.

And the friend was worse. Overall poll numbers, you don't. Overall poll numbers, you don't have the best you ever had. And overall poll numbers you do, I, I cited in one of those. I have the best, I have the best poll numbers I've ever had. Among Republicans. I have poll numbers where I'm 71%. I have the best poll numbers.

Those are among Republicans. You know you've got. No, no, no. among Republicans of a 94 and 95 percent. No, I'm talking about generally. Let me put it this way. There was a gentleman on Harry Emden yesterday on CNN, and he went crazy over how well Trump was doing.

Now, you know, you don't put that on, because I think CBS is a shade. Actually, CNN's a shade better than NBC. I think NBC is probably the worst of them all. But if you check CNN tomorrow, watch Harry Emden, and you'll see you about the numbers. But that's okay. defend ourselves yeah but there are other they can say there's your haters cite polls that have you

down in the 30s uh mr president yeah but they're fake polls jo i had a lot of fake polls you also have me in the seven then donald trump tries to make the case that all of the job numbers and all of the economic data that's out now showing that the economy is doing very bad is he says that's rigged and you'll see here, the MAGA-friendly host, Joe Kernan, I would say maybe somewhat pushes back, but not really. Here, play this clip. And certainly not, certainly suboptimal, but rigged? Where do you get the notion that it's rigged, or do you have any evidence there? It is antiquated, but it's also very political.

And, you know, I had an election recently where I did very well, won every swing state, won the popular vote, won everything, all right? I've won all the counties. I think 87% of the counties were Republican up. That's never happened before. And yet I had to go through hell. And just days before the election, they put out numbers that it was like the country was on fire. It was doing so well.

And then they did a revision about two weeks later. And the revision was down by almost 900,000 jobs. You remember that? And I said, man, I said, what would have happened? What would have happened if I lost? Think of it. I would have said, they gave phony numbers, and then they revised them a week and a half later. Those were benchmark numbers, though.

That happens. They do that. They do that twice a year. And it reconciles the monthly figures with, like, the overall numbers. And it was a big number. And obviously the numbers were rigged. The numbers were rigged. Biden wasn't doing well.

He was doing poorly. They announced these phenomenal numbers. the two days before the election and a little bit before that always these great numbers and you knew it wasn't doing well you knew prices were through the roof and inflation was there but the whole thing was bad and but think of it then they did the biggest revision i think in history of almost 900 000 jobs and it turned out to be more than that because later on they did another revision and so they gave phony numbers in order to win the election after i won the election i said too big to rig As frequent viewers know, I am a huge fan of our partner at Chapter who helped seniors select the best Medicare plan for their specific situation.

They've helped many viewers of this channel save money and get better medical care. One regular viewer named Kevin in Florida was struggling with high out-of-pocket costs due to his pre-existing conditions. Chapter helped him enroll in a plan that saves him $2,100 a year. They saved another listener, Stephen, hundreds of dollars a month by finding a better plan that covered his dialysis treatment. And the best part is it's totally free. You just give them a call at 82 Medicare and they'll see if you're in the best plan given your individual needs. If so, they'll let you know. If not, they'll help you find and enroll in something better.

It's easy and it's quick. They can review your options in less than 20 minutes. and did I mention, it's free. So if you're turning 65 or already on Medicare, but not sure if your plan is the best one that's around, call them today at 82 Medicare and share your experience in the comments below. Again, call them at 8-2 Medicare.

As James Sirwiki explains, literally everything Trump just said here is a lie, but literally everything he says in general is a lie. The last jobs report before the election, was very weak, just showing 12,000 jobs created. The big downward revision was announced in August, not after the election. He is a delusional and a liar.

Just a horrible, horrible combination. Here Donald Trump lies and claims the European Union is basically giving him a blank check for $600 billion that he claims that he can spend however he wants. Notice he doesn't even say the country. He goes, I can spend however I want. They gave me the European. Union gave me $600 billion.

And again, this is 100% false. European Union has said they have not guaranteed anything. The same way Japan and South Korea said they haven't guaranteed anything. They're not giving Donald Trump $1, yet alone $600 billion. There's no binding agreements. There's no paperwork. There's nothing written. It's Donald Trump's social media posts and Donald Trump wandering with his orange makeup,

ranting and raving on the roof of the White House. Here, play this clip. Mr. President, what kind of teeth, though, are in those investments? What kind of teeth are in those investments that would force the EU to make those investments? If they don't make those investments, what happens on the other side? Well, then they pay tariffs of 35%. No, no. They bought down their tariffs.

So they paid $600 billion, and because of that, I reduced their tariffs from 30% down to 15%. and a couple of countries came how come EU is paying less than us and I said well because they gave me $600 billion and that's a gift that's not like you know alone by the way that's not a loan that

oh gee three years comes up we have to pay it back there's nothing to pay back they gave us $600 billion that we can invest in anything we want the deal that nobody knows it Becky nobody knows it because you know they don't know we have been trying to figure out the details

on that Mr. President so we appreciate the details are 600 billion to invest in anything i want anything i can do anything i want with it and the purpose was they've been you know ripping us for so many years that it's time that they pay up and they have to pay up we couldn't afford to have the deficits look i i did something with switzerland the other day i spoke to their prime minister the woman was nice but she didn't want to listen and they paid essentially no tariffs and i said we have a 41 billion dollar deficit with you madam i didn't know her i said we have a 41 billion dollar deficit and you want to you want to pay one percent tariffs you wanted one percent i said you're not going to pay one percent we lose

then donald trump goes after nato leaders and says they do whatever the hell i want nato leaders they do what i want you're play this clip i finish one thing yes one year ago one year ago our country was dead. Now we have the hottest country anywhere in the world by far. And that was told to me by every leader of NATO, which they do whatever I want, that was told to me by the king of Saudi Arabia, by the leaders of UAE, by the leader of Qatar, by many, many, we were a dead country one year ago today were the hottest country anywhere in the world. And I'm very happy to help. Mr. President, once again, thank you. Thank you.

And Donald Trump brags about rigging the Texas maps and saying that he wants to grab these five seats away from Democrats before the midterms in Texas. Here play this clip. We have an opportunity in Texas to pick up five seats. We have a really good governor, and we have good people in Texas. And I won Texas.

I got the highest vote in the history of Texas, as you probably know. And we are entitled to five more seats. don't know. I have to check on that. And, you know, they expect, check it. Why don't you check it, right? The fact checkers expect us to check everything you say on the phone. I want you to check it. But for four years, those fact checkers didn't, didn't fact check anything that it was said about, we don't need to re-litigate that either. But they expect fact-checking immediately. Okay, because I like you to. I got the highest vote in the history of practice.

You know, yesterday we heard from the Republican Congress. member from Nebraska, Congress member Don Bacon. And at least he was honest here when he says, people are suffering in Nebraska right now. We're losing jobs. People are struggling. Here, play this clip. And I was to say, from my vantage point here in Nebraska, we're seeing a bit of a troubled economic must, or right now it's a troubled time. And I'll say in Nebraska, because the GDP here is decreased by 6% over the last year. And it's all about trade. It's all about getting corn and soybeans out the door.

So what I hear with a, you know, a weak jobs numbers, we're sort of seeing that in Nebraska right now. If you look at the generic ballot poll that just came out this morning from you gov. Right now, Democrats are above Republicans by significant margin, about 6%. That's been increasing steadily as well. as Donald Trump is just completely destroying his presidency, the Republican brand. It's this delusional insanity that you're seeing right there, wandering on the roof, shouting and ranting and raving like a lunatic.

I unearthed some footage that I want to share with you as well because Donald Trump ranting and raving on the roof, I'm spending all my money, everything I'm doing, that's all I'm giving you money. It just reminded me of this. This is May 8th, 2013, and it's Donald Trump at this event that's called I'm giving away money. This was the event. And it was one of Donald Trump's schemes. I'm giving away money.

Like it's like, I'm giving away money.com or something. Again, this is from 2013. This is the type of stuff that he was doing back then here. Just watch this clip. I'll put these two clips together for you here, play this clue. Make it to the podium, to be honest with you. And many of the people. are in trouble and they need help. And that's what we're about. And by the way, anything that I make

from doing this and anything that I get, I'm putting back in. I'm giving 100% back. So Bill and his group, we're giving out three major awards today. And we'll be announcing them now. In addition to that, we're going to be giving 10 checks for $5,000 apiece to some of the people that are in this massive audience so we'll be doing that but let's do this first so bill come on 20s 50s we're giving armfuls of money to people anybody want money up there we got plenty of money for people go to fund anything tell us your story we'll try to pick you give you money so we're going to be doing these again over the months we'll do them at trump tower we're going to be doing these again we have a few more people that we've just taken from the audience. So we've given away. And I'm giving you all my

money. I'm going to give you. You're going to be so rich. You're not going to know what to do with it. You want tariff rebate checks. You want doge dividend checks. We're going to be so worried. The guy's a con artist. I can't see. How do Americans fall for this crap? And he's a lunatic. I mean, he's on the top of a roof, ranting and raven like a lunatic.
